This looks to be another storming scenario pack form AP. Just driven 4L89 Coatbridge to Felixstowe freightliner and found it to be quite a challenge negotiating the rush hour traffic into London - a quite astonishing level of AI traffic in fact. The scenario was just spoilt slightly by the infamous 'passing couplers' issue which is of course a TS2014 problem and not scenario related. Interestingly this problem only seems to apply when something passes the player train whilst you are waiting in a loop - I cannot recall it ever occurring during a straight run by, so to speak, whilst out on the main line. It is one of those remaining and frustrating glitches that currently remains unresolved.

Many thanks Richard - looking forward to trying the other scenarios in this pack. I am now off for a well earned drink!

Because of this scenario pack I'm almost tempted to get the L2P. :)

When is that next sale?

This pack has me in a bind. Yes I want it, AP scenarios are always brilliant but no, not while there is still no 91... :-?

That's what is holding me back from getting the route full stop, no 91 yet plus also no 313 (hoping the 315 (whoever gets there first) will easily deputise).

Regards,

PS: I am sure the pack is great BTW, the screenshots look great.

How on earth did you maintain sanity while testing such a long activity? :)
